I'm giving it a shot!

I don't know how good at this I will be or if I will even be able to keep up with it, but hey all my sisters did it so now I feel likes it's an obligation ;).

At this point in time it's almost Christmas and I am away from my husband, it's hard but I thank my lucky stars every day it's not a deployment. Our son is growing every day and his father isn't here to see, when he smiles at me I wish I were his father. Oh how I wish Trevor could be here to see that gummy smile every day and be able to enjoy the small achievments like Trenton grasping a toy for the first time. I suppose 2 more weeks won't hurt us, but it still feels like forever. Being a Navy wife is a very tough job, I honestly don't think people give the spouses of service men and women enough credit! When our spouses enlist so do we, when they deploy so do we! It is a hard life and I wouldn't lie about that one bit, but it's a life I love, and a life I wouldn't change!

One thing I don't say enough to my family is how greatful I am to all of you! On my side of the family I only have my father and brother and Trevors side, well I have a whole other country ;). It's wonderful and everything I have ever wanted in a family. I love having 3 sisters that I can hang out with and talk girl talk. It's nice to know I have female influences in my life, because not having my mother around for the last 6 years has taken a lot away from my life, a lot that can never be replaced. That is why I am so thankful to you ladies. You have no idea what your love and support means to me, but that is ok, because I do and it's enough to make not having my mother around feel...ok. :). I love you guys!
